Rocket Riot Scores!

We’re contributing our own bit to the discussion about video games‘ potential as an artistic medium with ‘A Split Second’ – a game project we’re developing with Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam. But more about that later. This is about Rocket Riot, a brand-new game by one of the game designers involved in our project; the self-taught Sander van der Vegte. Rocket Riot, published by Codeglue and THQ, has been getting rave reviews. Check this out: IGN 8.5/10, Team Xbox 9/10, Metacritic 85/100, Gaminator 9/10. Dream scores! Rocket Riot – the first Dutch Xbox LIVE Arcade game – is a frantic old-school–ish side-view shooter with just the right blend of old school 8-bit style graphics and next-gen gameplay.
